Any terminal emulator can be used to facilitate communication with the NTC-3000 after the Virtual COM port has been installed using either the device’s serial port or the USB port.
Additionally, you can select to communicate with the modem using your computer’s serial port COM port. The example below demonstrates how to use HyperTerminal in Windows XP.

Click on the Start button and then navigate to the Accessories item and then Communications.

Click on the HyperTerminal item.

On the “Connect to” window, use the “Connect using” dropdown menu to select the virtual COM port (which was created by installing the AirCard Watcher) or the COM port to
which the modem is connected if using the DB9 serial/power adapter cable. See the Verifying successful installation of the driver section to determine the correct port number
of the virtual COM port.
